Chapter 315 Malicious Bidding, Past Grudges
You Gao and his secretary sat in an empty and luxurious office.
This was the number of times he had come here.
His mood was extremely complicated at this time, and generally speaking, he was angry.
Let alone Sun Chong, this guy was late again and left himself here.
The first time he came, it was to discuss "nusinersen", and You Gao was already very unhappy at that time.
Because the exclusive sales rights of this drug were taken away by Sun Chong alive.
At that time, the Magic City Medical Insurance Bureau and Sun Pharmaceutical Company, as well as several other domestic pharmaceutical companies were bidding in the United States.
If it was a normal bidding environment, the money in the hands of the person in question, You Gao, would be enough, so that the Medical Insurance Bureau would be able to win the domestic sales rights of "nusinersen".
Then use the money in the medical insurance account to subsidize domestic patients, and all patient families can obtain the right to use "nusinersen" at a very low price.
According to estimates, the price of one injection can be reduced to 30,000 yuan.
As a result, You Gao never expected that Sun Pharmaceutical Company, which was still an unknown company at the time, would come out in the middle!
The exclusive sales rights were raised by malicious bidding.
Originally, the Medical Insurance Bureau only needed to spend a few million US dollars to obtain the domestic sales rights through normal bidding, and only needed to give half of the profits to the drug research and development company.
As a result, due to the appearance of Sun Chong, he mindlessly raised the drug rights to 30 million US dollars!
No one could afford it.
So, the domestic sales rights of nusinersen fell into the hands of Sun Chong.
According to the Import Drug Management Law, the drug rights are in the hands of Sun Chong. Before the drug patent protection period, all other domestic pharmaceutical companies cannot sell or imitate it.
After this happened that year, You Gao was almost angry to death.
Because that year, he was entrusted with an important task and went there with the expectations of many domestic patients.
As a result, he was defeated by his own malicious bidding. Sun Chong's behavior was to make the people of the United States cheap!
When he returned to China, You Gao was even ashamed to see the people of Jiangdong.
The incident happened more than a year ago. You Gao remembered it very clearly. There was a father of a sick child named Ye Yuan. When he heard that he was going abroad to discuss drug imports, he came to thank him several times. He would never forget Ye Yuan's heartfelt gratitude and expectation.
He also couldn't forget Ye Yuan's deeds.
Ye Yuan's wife died suddenly of postpartum hemorrhage, leaving behind only her newborn son.
As a result, his son was diagnosed with the terrifying "spinal muscular atrophy".
The situation was undoubtedly worse.
When You Gao first met Ye Yuan, he went to the hospital for research.
When he met Ye Yuan, the man was extremely weak. His wife's death had made him feel desperate, and his only thought was that his son was suffering from a terminal illness.
It was raining cats and dogs. If it weren't for his son's treatment, Ye Yuan would not want to live at that time.
You Gao was very moved. Through Ye Yuan, he began to have a deep understanding of the rare disease group of spinal muscular atrophy.
There are not many patients in each city, but there are as many as 40,000 to 50,000 in the country!
This disease is also known as the "number one genetic killer" of infants under 2 years old.
It happened that a foreign pharmaceutical company developed a related drug at that time, so You Gao decided to make a move, but he didn't expect that it would be robbed by Sun Chong, a profiteer.
You Gao still remembers that when he returned to China, Ye Yuan and a group of patients' families met him at the airport, with excitement and expectation in their eyes.
When they learned about the situation, the look of loss made You Gao feel very painful.
Even more despair was to come. After returning to China, Sun Chong announced the price of the drug at 990,000 yuan!
It cast a shadow on the families of patients across the country. Despair!
Many children in many families have to choose conservative treatment because of the high price of imported drugs. Most of them have died in the past year or so.
During this period, You Gao negotiated with Sun Chong many times, but the result was....
So You Gao was very angry, especially when he saw this office.
At this time, creak....
The door of the office was pushed open, and Sun Chong, who was pot-bellied, dressed in a suit, combed back hair, and had a greasy face, walked in swaggeringly.
He was holding a cigar in his hand.
"Oh, it turns out to be Director You. Long time no see. I was thinking of visiting you." Sun Chong said with a smile.
You Gao's mouth twitched, but he still sorted out his expression and tried his best to be polite: "Mr. Sun, how are you? It seems that you have made a fortune again recently. ”
They fight overtly and covertly, and fight to the death in secret, but they always maintain a gentlemanly side when they meet.
“Hahaha, what kind of money are you making? I think you must be here to negotiate again. Cut it out. If you ask me, you should quit being the director and come to work in my pharmaceutical company. I will give you an annual salary of 5 million.”
Sun Chong sat next to You Gao and spoke nonsense.
You Gao felt very uncomfortable. Sun Chong said this just to disgust him.
This 5 million annual salary is earned from patients in a dishonest way!
I, You Gao, will only be punished for not doing my job well, and I will not make this kind of money in a dishonest way!
“Hehe, Director Sun, I have my responsibilities. You should also know what this time is. Recently, the reputation of Sun’s Pharmaceutical Company is not good. Director Sun has no means to save public opinion?”
You Gao is also an old negotiator. Before the negotiation, point out the current difficulties of your pharmaceutical company first, so that it is easier to make a price.
“Oh? Director You, do you have any good ideas?”
Sun Chong asked back with a smile.
You Gao was stunned when he heard this. He had fought with Sun Chong for countless rounds, but today Sun Chong felt a little different!
If it were in the past, Sun Chong would have ridiculed him long ago, but today he even asked back.
It seems that the pressure of public opinion on the Internet has indeed had a significant impact on him.
This is good news.
So You Gao continued, "Mr. Sun, you also know the purpose of my coming. Let's make some concessions. If you lower the price of the medicine, our medical insurance bureau will give you a part of the subsidy. In this way, you won't lose much money, and the general public will also have imported medicine to eat. It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. At that time, everyone will praise you and say that you are a great man!"
For the sake of drug rights, You Gao even held back his nausea and praised Sun Chong.
"Lower the price?" Sun Chong narrowed his eyes and waved his hand: "That's absolutely impossible!"
You Gao was stunned. Sun Chong could still be so tough? He was not afraid that the public opinion offensive would overwhelm his pharmaceutical company?
You Gao didn't think much about it, and immediately continued to persuade and negotiate, still starting from the point of public opinion, preparing to scare Sun Chong, using both soft and hard tactics.
But Sun Chong's next words would not work for You Gao.
"It's impossible to lower the price, but I can donate all the rights of clobazam and other drugs to your medical insurance bureau."
Sun Chong blew out a puff of smoke and crossed his legs, looking very casual and generous.
"Donate?!"
You Gao almost blew it out on the spot, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears....
"What? You said I'm a good man, can't I donate?" Sun Chong still maintained his elegance and said lightly.
"No..."
You Gao was completely dumbfounded, and all the prepared words lost their effect at this moment.
At this time, You Gao couldn't help but think of what Lin Mo said to him when he contacted him before.
"Sun Chong will donate, I don't need to come."
"This...this...this profiteer really donated?!"
After You Gao confirmed it, he widened his eyes in surprise.
